Obituary

SAVONA. On August 26, VALERIE, of Sliema, aged 81, passed away peacefully at St James Capua Hospital, Sliema, comforted by the rites of Holy Church. Valerie leaves to mourn her loss, her children, Deserie Brincat, Gillian Debono and Paul Savona. Her grandchildren Raphael Brincat, Michael Brincat, Emma Brincat, Alexandra Savona and Vincent Savona. Her in-laws Martin Debono and Jeanette Savona and their respective families, as well as a host of nieces and nephews around the world and many dear friends home and abroad. The funeral leaves St James Capua Hospital tomorrow, Tuesday, August 30, at 1.30pm, for Stella Maris church, Sliema, where Mass praesente cadavere will be said at 2pm, followed by interment in the Savona Family grave at Santa Maria Addolorata Cemetery. Although Mummy, Nana, will be sorely missed, we know that she will be happily reunited with her parents, sisters and brother. We are comforted that the love of her life, her missing limb since he left us, Ċenz, is eagerly waiting with arms wide open to hold her tight like he always used to. They are now both whole again and no doubt making up for lost time. Lord, grant her eternal rest.
